Calling Outer Space

This term GATE students are looking at why we have not been contacted by aliens!  If we assume there are other life forms out there, why have they not made themselves known to us?  What do they see when they observe us?  Are we a planet that invites others in, either through our environment, or our humanity?  Groups have been tasked with answering this question.  They have also worked to create an advertisement suitable for advertising Earth.  Here are some examples of their work.

Haepapa

Caleb and Kaija

Greta and Carter

Aroha

Aroha Pod used Pic Collage to advertise their favourite parts about life on earth.  Here are a number of collages.

Song Recording

Here is one of the tracks recorded by senior GATE students at the beginning of term four.  The lyrics were originally written by Amy van Leeuwen.  The final  song was put together with Christopher Rankin playing guitar and Mrs Zhou playing the piano.
